Travel

General Travel Policy: all faculty & staff must submit a Travel
Request Form prior to any absence from his or her regular
duties. Flights may be booked through any online travel reservation
system (including the UT system, Concur) or through UT's contracted
travel agencies, Anthony Travel and Corporate Travel Planners. Please note, however, that flights booked online through the airline's website can only be reimbursable, not direct-billed to the department.

Traveler ProfilesTraveler profiles expedite the
reservation process and keep you from having to give the same basic
information each time you make a reservation. You should create a
profile for every traveler you plan trips for and make sure the
university’s contracted travel agencies have updated versions of these
profiles on record.

Submit a Travel RequestA Request for Travel Authorization (RTA) must be submitted in advance for
each absence of a faculty member from his or her regular duties
(HOP 7.28).
